Clear view, superior numbers on chaos side would cause fear but...:


Heavy shooting on both sides. But the forces of Nurgle remain imperturbable. Falconslack armour to withstand heavy shooting:


Chaos Terminators with demon turn up to bring terror and death, but the powerful nightspinners fire to keep their heads down, it won´t be easy for them:


Guardians succeed in defeating terminator after a long assault, but with terrible casualties:


Aspects, commanded by the Autarc, assault the Feral. It takes long but it falls:


Loyal Terminators arrive and destroy the cultists formation, but there will be trouble in the opposite flank:

Chaos reserves arrive with countless troops and powerful hydra AA to keep airpower away. Decimator falls back after blowing away the SM infantry:


The power of Tzeench is unstoppable, this flank will fall:


Resistence is futile:


The horde turns to the center:


They Shall Know No Fear, SM seize the hill after a hard fight:

Cultists have no discipline, but Chaos SM keep advancing under Tzeench´s commands:


Left Flank: joint efforts succeed in destroying all enemies, only a demon and a few tanks remain between the Eldar and the objectives:


Aspects warriors seize both objectives in the center. Air force keeps pounding the Chaos forces:


Left flank secured! Remaining forces fall back from right flank to prevent further loses. The Alliance wins:


Eldar&SM: 1 Hold the Line
Chaos: 0

Comments:
Decimator is too powerful for its cost!!
Chaos Terminators are too cheap compared with loyal terminators, or maybe TSKNF is too expensive!!! :glare: . Well, all Chaos SM are very cheap compared with loyal marines, TSKNF is not so powerful as to have such point cost IMO.

Haha

Too powerful for their points cost?

Those terminators are not fit to be in terminator armour. Guardians beat them!   :sigh:

Lord Bruno, do you still have the larger, high quality pictures of your game or did you reduce the originals?  I ask because these are great pics and they would be excellent to feature in the Chaos supplement when it finally comes around.  If you are okay with it, would you let us use the pictures for a future publication?  Could you email them to me or Chroma please?

Hi!!
I´m the owner of the chaos army of the battle report, and if you want, i can take a pictures sesion of it in a couple of days.Also i´m waiting for some more decimators, land raiders a death wheel and capsule, and building some obliterators.

If you can wait a couple of weeks, i think that I can show a 4500 point army.

Sorry for my bad english!!

Decimator is too powerful for its cost!!

This has been known for a while ; I believe that's the reason it's limited 0-2 in the official list, as it was shown to be too good en masse and rather than raise its points cost the AC put a 0-x limit on it.

There were many guardians + weapons platforms + wraithguard + support from land raiders so I thought I was able to defeat them  :vD

Sorry I have reduced the originals but we will make more photos soon, as Midian says.
